newtothis2006 Posted June 28, 2006 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2006 How much of a deposit is needed when booking a cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkk W Griswald Posted June 28, 2006 #2 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Normally $250 per person. However, my agent was having what they called a "deposit sale" and I was only required to put down $200.00 for the both of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different agencies run this special at different times, so if you shop around, you can probably find one running this special when you're ready to book.

Carolyn R Posted June 28, 2006 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I thought the usual deposit was $450 a person except when the $100 per person special is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deloresgardella Posted June 28, 2006 #5 Share Posted June 28, 2006 It depends on the length of the cruise. I think 7 day is $250, 10 day $350 and longer ones $450. Unless your TA has an $100 limited sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLACRUISER99 Posted June 28, 2006 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Many TA,s have the $100.00 deposit right now so if you are thinking of booking I would. You can always get a full refund from princess up to 75 days before sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongerob Posted June 28, 2006 #7 Share Posted June 28, 2006 My in-laws paid $450 pp for a 7-day cruise during an off-peak time, about two months ago. As others have mentioned, you can look for advanced booking specials that include reduced deposits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean8844 Posted June 28, 2006 #8 Share Posted June 28, 2006 going solo and my deposit was $450 on 10-day cruise;) Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DickM Posted June 28, 2006 #9 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Many of us buy future cruises credits while on board ship. Cost is $100 per person per cruise. You can use that FCC as your total deposit at any time for any cruise. You also get an on-board credit (amount depends upon length of cruise). The cruise credit can be purchased for a specific cruise or for a cruise to be determined at a later date. If you plan on cruising Princess again it's worth considering. We always try to keep 1 or 2 in the bank for future use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusrose Posted June 28, 2006 #10 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I think it depends on the length and cost of the cruise. I've heard people speak of $1800 deposits. I always have a couple of future cruise credits in waiting so have not made more than a $200 deposit in ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
